That reminder that was in my previous blog has been on my mind a lot the last few days. We have only been in our new house a couple of weeks. We've met a few neighbors. Night before last there was an ambulance and fire truck across the street. Yesterday another neighbor said the man in that house had died---smoking and drugs were the rumored causes.
This morning was a note from a nephew of his new baby girl born on Thursday in Boston. Locally we are awaiting the birth of Hannah Elizabeth, grand daughter, due in 3 weeks.
"Live the life you have..." Joe and I spend a lot of time on "what would we do if..." We need to quit!! This house, this community, this life is the life we have. It meets all of our needs. Who ever guessed Las Vegas would meet all of those needs? We are so blessed.
Birth---death---the life in between is what we have. It really is kind of amusing.We spend so much time on planning and then it works out to be "the life we have."
Dear God, today let us relax in the life we have and thank you for all the gifts.
Blessings-Penny
